I totally enjoyed my stay. A great location. The staff was friendly and helpful. The room was great. It was roomy, clean and quiet. The bed was so comfortable and there was a full size shower and the air quality was perfect not too dry. On my Favorites list for San Francisco.

Thank you very much for this kind review of our lovely little Inn. It's our great pleasure to know you enjoyed our staff and your stay with us and that we took great care of you! We so hope you will plan a return trip to us very soon!!! Until then we wish you the safest and happiest of travels... Warmly, Ann

The reason that I could not recommend this hotel is the lack of air conditioning. We spent a pretty uncomfortable night. We were not advised until the next morning that we should have opened the windows for some cool air.

Outstanding boutique hotel in the heart of the city!”

A small, quiet hotel. When you arrive, you are greeted by a friendly staff who checks you in. Always a smile! The hotel is small, but the room was spacious and comfortable. A tablet is by your bedside to read the paper, as a clock, to check the weather. Very fun! The complimentary wine and breakfast were very nice. Met new friends!

Fantastic place to stay!”

The staff was incredible! Everyone was so friendly! The concierge booked tours for us and gave great instructions concerning street car travel. Every evening there was wine and cheese and we met great people from all over the world. The rooms were so clean and neat, two chocolates on the pillows greeted us every evening! I highly recommend The Inn at Union Square!

This is a small boutique hotel that offers a great location and accommodating staff. If you're used to big hotels with hundreds of rooms this may not for you, but if you're looking for extraordinary service and personal attention this is the place! Really great breakfast included!

Staff is outstanding. Anne and Catherine were helpful with dinner reservations and offering assistance with anything we might need. Room was small but very nice, modern and clean. Our only critique would’ve to update the elevator finishes.

A great place to stay”

The staff was friendly, attentive and helpful. The hotel has many nice touches---fruit baskets during the day, a wine and cheese tray every evening, cookie jars in common areas around bedtime. Simple but good quality continental breakfast. Clean and well maintained.
Minuses are no window views, and many room windows open to noisy rooftop AC on neighboring buildings. I think this is a minor issue, and would definitely stay here again.

I'd just come off a 5* deluxe vacation in Austria when I made this trip so my standards were high! The front desk is basic but the staff are super-friendly, my room (501) was a very good size (basically a suite) and they had lots of nice little touches - small sitting room on each level with fruit and cookies, and all night coffee and snacks - perfect if your time zone is 8 hours away.

On holiday from the UK ”

My husband and I stayed at the Inn. We had the best time. I had never been to San Francisco and was not disappointed. The city is amazing. The staff at the Inn were helpful, kind, and made our stay in San Francisco special. They couldn’t do enough and the lovely touches the hotel provides like a homemade cookie in the late evening, free wine and cheese early evening with crackers, and other tasty nibbles was delicious the wines are excellent, soft drinks too. Breakfast is continental, which is more than enough. If you needed assistance with anything it was never too much for the staff. I can’t recommend this hotel enough and that’s down to everyone who works there. A big thank you from The Pillings

Very impressed!”

We had an amazing stay here! The staff were so friendly and made us feel very welcome! We were given a glass of champagne when we checked in which was a nice surprise! They also gave us a free upgrade to a queen studio room which was much appreciated. :) Breakfast was included in the reservation and was lovely. The hotel itself is in the ideal location as it’s close to union square with lots of restaurants and shops nearby. The only issues we had were that every time you left the hotel you had to log into the wifi every time you returned and the shower took a little while to heat up. We would totally recommend this place. :)

Perfect little gem with the best service ”

This was a great find. The rooms were clean and beautifully decorated to feel like home. They had hot cookies every night, little chocolates at turndown, they upgraded us as it’s our wedding anniversary. Everybody was phenomenal. Not a single complaint for this hotel. The three stars for facilities is not a complaint- it’s a fact, and I don’t think it should affect anyone’s decision to stay. Sanfranciscos hills can be your gym workout!

Great little hotel, perfect position for shopping and access to cable car. Room was lovely and bathroom nice and modern. Service was fantastic, highlight for us was the ability to have our bags stored when we returned to San Francisco 2 weeks after we stayed at the Inn. Would stay there again.
